Bologna. You can purchase tickets in row 2 of section 231. In fact, if you select a specific section in any of the upper corners, you can pretty much get pick of the litter.

It is very disappointing that the FO is still choosing to provide these inflated numbers. I understand that most teams in these situations do the same thing, but I would much rather hear something to the effect of "our attendance numbers have not been as high as in recent years, and we are taking specific steps to remedy this situation."

Maybe 23K is their anticipated # for Sunday. Again, let's wait to hear the #s, before saying they are wrong.

Heck went on record as saying "comp" tickets are down. First time I remember a FO guy doing that with this franchise. Why Heck would even bring it up if it weren't true makes no sense.

True... not sure how the "Best Available" algorithm works. I put in "best available, yellow" and got 223, row 18. Not sure why 231 row 2 isn't considered better than 223 row 18. When I specify section 223, I still get row 18.
